are ID favor Of the call Of conyen-
ton to formulate a new state con-
stitution, and assign among other
reasons that such a convention
would have the power to tax the
property of the B. & o. railroad in
this state. This is mistake. The
state has through its legislatures en-
tered into a compact with the b. & o.
to release its right to tax the COM
pany's property, and it is beyond
the power of the convention to alb
rogate that compact. There are,
however, other good and sufficient
reasons for the adoption of a new
constitution.

We have received the Fifth An
nual Report, 1886, of the 'tBalti-
more Eye, Ear, and Throat Charity
Hospital" located at G25 W.
Franklin street, Baltimore, which
shows most gratifying work of the
institution. The design of this In
stitution is to furnish gratuito us
medical services and, in such cases
as require it, hospital accommoda-
ton, to the INDECENT poor suffering
with Eye, Ear or Throat Disease.
The poor throughout the State of
Maryland, as we'll as in the city of
Baltimore, are entitled to its privi-
leges.
From statistics we learn that the
total number of patients treated
during the year was 1,675. OF this
number l, 40 were white and 535
colored; 941 of those who sought
relief were suffering from diseases
or injuries of the eyes Arb of the
throat and 301 of the ears.
The managers are DESTROYS of
having the advantages of this insti-
tuition more generally known to4he
poor of the State, and have placed
at our disposal number of free
tickets of admission to the deserv-
ing poor which Will secure board,
nursing aud medical attendance free
of cost.
AS this institution is supported
by voluntary subscriptions, the edi-
tor Of the The CAPITAL would be
pleased to be the medium through
which to forward any favors, how
ever small, its readers may place in
his hands.
